Super Bowl 2025: An explosive final, a blazing Kendrick Lamar, and the end of a reign!

The 59th Super Bowl delivered an intense spectacle, both on and off the field. The Philadelphia Eagles swept the Kansas City Chiefs (40-22), ending Patrick Mahomes’ hopes for a three-peat. Jalen Hurts dominated the game and was crowned MVP. At halftime, Kendrick Lamar delivered a spectacular show, while in the stands, Taylor Swift was booed under the watchful eyes of a mocking Donald Trump. A final that will go down in history.

The Super Bowl, an extraordinary global event!
The Super Bowl is much more than an American football final. It’s the most-watched sporting event in the world, a total spectacle where sport, music, and business meet. Broadcast in over 180 countries, it gathers annually more than 100 million viewers in the United States, an absolute record.

What makes it a unique phenomenon is its mix of sport and culture. Every year, the biggest brands invest millions to air a few seconds of commercials, and the top artists compete to perform at halftime, a slot guaranteeing worldwide visibility.

The Eagles as bosses, Mahomes in distress
This Super Bowl was expected as a remake of 2023, when the Chiefs triumphed over the Eagles in the last seconds. But this time, Philadelphia left no chance to Kansas City.

From the start, the Eagles set their pace. Jalen Hurts opened the score on the second drive with a touchdown on one of his signature plays. By halftime, the Chiefs quarterback was cornered, unable to find solutions against an implacable defense. Score at the break: 24-0. A humiliation for a team supposed to make history with a third consecutive title.

Mahomes, usually the game master, endured an absolute nightmare. With two interceptions, six sacks suffered, and a completely blocked offense, he had to wait until the last quarter to save face. Too late, the game was already decided. Jalen Hurts soared through the match and was logically awarded MVP, with 221 passing yards and 72 rushing yards.

This defeat marks a serious setback for the Chiefs, whose dominance seems to waver. Kansas City will have to rethink after this final that highlighted the limits of an offense too dependent on Mahomes.

Kansas City Chiefs: the end of a dynasty?
In recent years, the Kansas City Chiefs have imposed their law on the NFL. Led by their superstar quarterback Patrick Mahomes, they played three Super Bowls in five years, becoming the team to beat.

Since his arrival in 2017, Mahomes has revolutionized the quarterback position with spectacular play, impossible passes, and the ability to turn any situation around. Alongside Travis Kelce, an essential tight end and true reception machine, he built an offense that seemed unstoppable.

But this final revealed the flaws of a team too dependent on its leader. Troubled, intercepted twice, and sacked six times, Mahomes never found a solution against the Eagles’ defense. This loss raises a burning question: have the Chiefs reached their ceiling?

Philadelphia Eagles: is Jalen Hurts’ reign beginning?
If the Eagles took their revenge, it’s largely thanks to Jalen Hurts, their 25-year-old quarterback, named MVP of the game.

Long underestimated, he has established himself as one of the most formidable leaders in the league. With 221 passing yards and 72 rushing yards, he dominated the Chiefs’ defense and perfectly led his team to the title.

He’s not just a talented player, he’s also a born leader, capable of carrying his team even in difficult moments. With him, the Eagles seem equipped to dominate the NFL in the coming years.

Kendrick Lamar ignites halftime with an epic show
As always, the halftime show was highly anticipated, and Kendrick Lamar did not disappoint. Alone on stage, he delivered one of the most memorable shows of recent years, paying tribute to hip-hop culture and his own journey.

The stage opened with Samuel L. Jackson, dressed as Uncle Sam, launching the performance with a powerful monologue. Then Kendrick Lamar appeared, sitting on the hood of a Buick GNX, a nod to his childhood in Compton.

From the first notes of "Humble," the crowd was on fire. He followed with "DNA," surrounded by dancers dressed in the colors of the United States, before delivering a masterful finale with "Not Like Us," his latest explosive hit.

This performance marks a turning point in Super Bowl history, confirming that hip-hop is now at the heart of global pop culture.

Taylor Swift booed, Trump mocking: the VIP stands in turmoil
Even off the field, this Super Bowl was marked by strong moments. Taylor Swift, who came to support her partner Travis Kelce, was booed by part of the crowd when she appeared on the stadium screens. A surprising moment that immediately sparked reactions.

Present in the stands, Donald Trump didn’t miss the opportunity to troll the singer on his Truth Social network. The former president, a big Chiefs supporter, had bet on a Kansas City victory and didn’t hesitate to comment on the evening with his usual irony.

The Caesars Superdome stands were also filled with personalities from around the world. Among them, Lionel Messi, Jay-Z, Bradley Cooper, and Kevin Costner. The Super Bowl once again confirms its status as the grand gathering of sport and entertainment, where attention is not only on the field.

A Super Bowl 2025 that will make history
This 59th Super Bowl had everything to remain unforgettable. Between the Eagles’ crushing victory, Patrick Mahomes’ downfall, and a Kendrick Lamar in top form, this final brought together sport, culture, and spectacle like rarely before.

With this perfectly executed revenge, the Eagles take control of the NFL, while the Chiefs must now reinvent themselves to hope to reach the top again. One thing is sure, next season promises to be exciting.
